May Challenge - 2010

[[deleted user]]

Since I seem to have over looked the posting of the May Challenge, I'm going to pick something fun and easy were there wont be much footwork in picking out books.

Theme - Series

Read the 1st book, the 2nd book, the 23rd book of any series (Any book of a series). You don't even have to stay in the series. Skip around to all of your favorites and get a good re-read in or start a series.

I'm glad you like this challenge. I figured... Series are always fun. We start them and have a hard time fitting in time to finish them up. I know I have like 50 series started.

Happy Reading!

[Zakiya]

I probably have at least 25 started. Lol :)

[Joeanne]

Almost finshed just need to read a 23th book in a series.

[Ann aka Iftcan]

1) Dead in the Family Sookie Stackhouse (aka Southern Vampires, aka True Blood) #10

2) Honeymoon of the Dead Garnet Lacey #5

[Jencey/]

I am reading The Bourne Identity by Robert Ludlum. It is the first book in the Bourne Series.

[Ann aka Iftcan]

Ok, here's my 3 books. They are from different series, but all are part of a series.



Happy Hour of the Damned by Mark Henry (book 1)

Dead in the Family by Charlaine Harris (book 10)

Honeymoon of the Dead by Tate Hallaway (book 5)

Love in the Time of Dragons by Katie MacAlister Ok, I admit--this one is kind of hard to deside what number to give it. Basically with her Dragons series MacAlister has done 3 series (with this being the third) that all start at the end of the last book in the previous series. And if you haven't read the entire series you are gonna be hopelessly lost. Having said that (and admitted that yes, I'm geek enough to have read ALL of them) I do enjoy this series. It has a lot of humour in it--but also a lot of angst. It usually takes a couple of books for the couple to arrive at their hea, but they do eventually do it. Having said all that--this is book 1 of the Dragons of Light book
